Is this ready?

[Rogerlodge]

I felt confident with the clear, cloudy, amber trichome technique but now i read its not the best way and im confused.

any guidance on this plant or harvest timing in general?

Autoflower ak47
Noticed first pistils on 5/25, so 4 weeks and a few days of flowering

That needs lots more time. Several weeks still.

I was about to say at least 3.

Not that i am anxious or anything....thanks for heads up

Well most are 8 week min flowering so if you’re about 4 in you’re also about 4 away.

The seedshop said 70 days. So i should expect 12wks vs. 10wks?

Seed shops lie. Under perfect conditions, lighting, etc maybe. I would expect about 4 more weeks.

Seed packaging will be a guideline, a very loose guideline. Even if all environmental variables were accounted for the times on packages will still be off usually. Definitely need to learn to let the plant tell you when shes ready, theres also the type of smoke you have, you could cut them early/"on time"/late for different types of highs So it really comes down to preference during those last week or two. Do you have a magnifying glass / jewelers loupe? Something with like 40x-120x magnification to be able to check the heads of the trichs

You want to be looking at the buds and not the leaves. Also get a view from the side, not the top of the mushroom shaped trichome. Anywhere in between the last 3 is preference really.... Cut a little bit at a time and keep track of it so you can narrow down what you like.
